This church was built in the Baroque style in 1777. It still contains the baptismal font in which Friderik Baraga was baptized on June 29, 1797. For his name-day patron saint, Baraga was given Saint Irenaeus, the Bishop of Lugdunum (Lyon, France, 177 A.D.). At the centennial of his birth in 1897, a bust of Bishop Baraga, the work of sculptor Alojz Progar, was unveiled in the church.
